Abstract
The Authors consider that hip echography plays a fundamental role in the diagnosis of congenital hip dislocation in the perinatal age group and that this methodic provides accurate information.
The absence of risk to the patient allows its utilization in the screening protocol. The aim of the research was not only to confirm echography utility in diagnosis, but also to plan and to promote its uniform use as a prognostic instrument in predicting and guiding a more accurate therapeutic approach.
